abu garcia 6500 cs rocket reel Pro Plus Custom Color Fishing ABU have also redesigned the handle and drag knob on the ABU 7000 CS Pro Rocket for increased cranking power and ease of use. Abu Garcia Ambassadeur CS Pro

This reel will be available in right hand retrieve only, weigh in at 11.6 ounces with a gear ratio of 5.3:1 (ipt = 26")

Its extended bent handle with a power knob provides increased leverage and comfort, especially during prolonged battles with large fish

You are supposed to tighten braid around one of the two grooves until it slips under the rubber ring and be retained there

The sprue marks around the shaft though leave little doubt that it's made by casting a molten alloy, and that would make it a casting process of higher precision than I'm used to seeing in reels of this price

This is plenty of drag pressure to handle, and the shaft seemed to take it very well

The reel's Carbon Matrix drag system delivers smooth and consistent drag pressure, allowing you to manage hard-fighting fish with ease
